Hi, Has anyone applied to City of Hopes New Grad program for the February 2013 cohort? The application is due today, and I can't seem to find the app online. Anyone care to direct me to the right place?

Hello, I was wondering if anyone here has ever interviewed for RN positions at LA county hospitals (i.e. Olive-View, Harbor-UCLA, LAC+USC, Rancho Los Amigos). I'm not sure what to expect, and I would really appreciate a little guidance. Is it just ...

Hi LnMaR! Sorry, I got this message a little late, as I have not been on All Nurses lately, but the interview went well. I hope that your interview went well too!

Hey all, I had a question regarding name changes with the BRN. I am not currently licensed, nut plan on taking the test at the end of this month. However, one thing is really bothering me: the last name that the BRN has on file for me is missing on...

congratulations on your acceptance! To my knowledge, you must complete the MSN portion of the program, since the two second-degree programs at APU (SCAN and EENAP) merged. After you complete your pre-licensure courses for your BSN, you can take th...

Thanks again to all who responded. Yay for nurses helping other nurses! Interviews are definitely a daunting process, especially if they are with the County! And of course, I think there are tons of things I could have improved, but nursing is a ...

Thanks for all the input! I will definitely use this advice for my interview next week.

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone knew a Research Methods class at a California junior college that could be taken online. The class is usually listed as a Psychology/Sociology class, and I need it as a pre-req. However, I can't go to the actual...

Yes, you did, and think you for the info! I figured the Masters portion would be an option now that they merged two programs.

Thanks for the info. Ill check it out. Thats cheaper than my other online option.

Hi everyone, I was admitted for Summer 2011 at APU's ELM program. I have a question that maybe you guys can answer. I understand that the tuition for the full 3-4 years is around 58k, but is it possible to stop after completing the pre-licensure po...

Hi all, I has a couple of questions about USN's accelerated BSN program. Does anybody know if this school offers any kind of loan forgiveness program...e.g. one where you could work at a hospital for x number of years, and in turn have them cover so...

I called them in March because I had sent in my application in November 2009, and hadnt heard back in a while. Shortly after (maybe a week), I received the letter in the mail. So, if you're waiting to find your admission status, I would recommend g...

I got in for Fall 2011. They called them and found out, then received a letter in the mail about a week later. I don't really know how to proceed from here though. Has anyone that got accepted received any additional materials from them??

The masters program at Western is more than 2 years. During the first 16 months, students prepare for RN licensure. After they pass the NCLEX, they start working as RNs and take the masters portion online, doing clinicals at various sites around wh...

Yeah, they're nice, polite people over there. But ditto to what the previous poster said. A bit unorganized

The entry level masters programs I applied to are specifically for people with non-nursing degrees. I graduated from a four-year UC school and they didn't offer nursing at my time of application (nor did I want to become a nurse), but I eventually d...

Thanks for clarifying that for me! NSC hasnt really been returning my calls or e-mails..so I'm glad someone could explain that process :) I've been applying to a lot of programs in so cal, most of them being entry level masters programs, and thus far...

I've considered applying to NSC, but everytime I try to contact their admissions people, it almost always goes straight to voicemail. It's been a bit hard for me to get info on that school aside from the website. I'm kind of confused as to how the...

Thanks for the response :) I am worried about the cost..but no matter what accelerated BSN program or MSN I apply to, I think it would be costly anyways. I'm from out-of-state, and going to private school in NV actually costs as much, or less than s...

Hello all, I'm a pre-nursing student from CA. The prospects of me getting into a masters or accelerated BSN program right now is not too good, and I've currently been looking at schools in Nevada...specifically, Nevada State College. I was wonderin...

Bump. Does anyone know if this school has rolling admissions? I'm confused about their deadlines.

Hey guys, I know this isn't directly related to nursing programs, but I was wondering if anyone has ever gone through a diploma or certificate program for medical imaging. I'm thinking of applying to the certificate program for Diagnostic Cardiac So...

Hi everyone, At the moment, I'm finished with all my science pre-reqs for nursing school. I was pretty satisfied with everything until I found out *dun dun dun* I got a "C" in my Physiology class. I considered retaking it over the summer, so the gr...

Hey all, I know this question is really irritating, and has been asked a million times. It probably has a really wide array of different answers too. However, I was wondering exactly how much weight is really put on grades for california nursing pr...
